My Lord and my God. St. Thomas cries out to the Lord and all disbelief melts into faith in the Resurrected Lord. He had expressed doubt, having absents himself from the evening gathering that first Easter, but the Lord in His mercy allows him to have what he needs to believe.
The Lord knows that we are in need of a deeper faith, but He also meets that need, when we express it. Doubt is not all bad in the spiritual life, but may be the very vehicle into faith that allows us to proclaim Christ to the ends of the earth when that doubt is cleared.
